Native implementation leverages existing IT infrastructures to speed adoption of tokenization for IBM i-reliant organizations.
nuBridges announced this week it is supporting Format Preserving Tokenization (FPT) natively on the IBM i platform. nuBridges Format Preserving Tokenization for IBM i enables IBM i-reliant organizations to implement tokenization on legacy systems to protect payment card numbers, personally identifiable information (PII), and protected health information (PHI) from a security breach. It gives companies the ability to implement tokenization natively on centralized IBM i systems, as well as in distributed, recipient IBM i applications such as online shopping carts, order management, billing and payroll systems.
nuBridges Format Preserving Tokenization for IBM i offers a proven data protection model that substitutes meaningless surrogate values—tokens—for sensitive and confidential information residing in IBM i applications across industries, including financial services, insurance, retail, hospitality and telecommunications companies, giving organizations an easy and practical way to comply with data security mandates and privacy laws.
"Tokenization is gaining traction with organizations that need the flexibility to protect all types of confidential information across the extended enterprise to reduce risk and meet compliance requirements,” said Gary Palgon, nuBridges vice president of Product Management. “We are pleased to be able to provide native Format Preserving Tokenization for the IBM i user community, satisfying growing customer demand for this new and highly versatile data security model and enabling companies to leverage the investment in their existing IT infrastructure."
Tokenization is an increasingly accepted data security model. Because format-preserving tokens maintain the length and format of the original data they represent, they can be generated for all types of sensitive customer, patient, employee and company information, without making costly programming modifications to applications and databases. This further minimizes impact on existing systems because the token matches the format of the original value. Using tokens instead of encrypted values has the added benefit of taking data, applications and systems out of scope for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliance and audits.
nuBridges Format Preserving Tokenization for IBM i facilitates rapid tokenization adoption by taking advantage of native IBM i capabilities (e.g., logging, user authority) and simplifying software installation.
nuBridges Format Preserving Tokenization for IBM i is part of nuBridges Protect, the industry’s first data security software solution to combine a new variation of tokenization—Format Preserving Tokenization—with strong local encryption, centralized encryption key management and logging in one platform-agnostic package. nuBridges Protect is designed for organizations that need to protect payment card numbers as well as volumes of personally identifiable information (PII) and protected health information (PHI) from theft and accidental loss, while reducing complexity and simplifying compliance management for data security standards and privacy laws.
